you have to suffer, 02 Sep 2022hmd could have gone with snapdragon 732g. then you would have complained "oh should have used atleast sd 695 so that it atleast supports 5G" man is there any phone on this planet you haven't complained on ? i nearly see you in every post on gsmarena complaining about something
Get a life man !!

    Shadocx, 02 Sep 2022Oh yeah, because the SD 732G has 5G and Cortex-A78...its not because of 5g. the 695 soc just cant do 4k video. a downgrade from 690

        Carol, 01 Sep 2022No worries, i do not take offense from people that have som... more"i want to support the european brands and not chinese ones"

        Yet the development & design of the X30, alongside every release from HMD except for the retro dumbphones & maybe 9 Pureview // 8 // 8 Scirocco was done by chineses ODMs.
        Not a single drop of finnish design or development in that X30 I'm afraid.

        So yeah, FairPhone remains your only option, if you're willing to sacrifice cameras, peformance & design in the name of sustainability.

        Don't take me wrong, I'm a long-time fan of the Nokia brand. But it's long gone by now.
        HMD are simply milking what they can out of the name, by putting it on average china-developped & designed phones, and asking Nokia money for them.

        I guess they're gonna do just that until there's nothing left. Like many I think their Nokia licence should've been revocated a long time ago, but that's just business I guess.

          AnonD-546724, 01 Sep 2022The almighty OEMs you quoted, they all outsource their desi... moreIt isn't an excuse. The majority of phones are designed and produced by ODM's but it's still doesn't mean that they all have the same financial possibilities to offer all for nothing. People became so demanding that they want it all, they want it yesterday and if possible for free. Not so long ago (1990's) you paid twice the current price of a premium phone for something that could only do phone calls and maybe some texting.

            TheLastOracle, 02 Sep 2022Your communication skills, manners and knowledge are defini... moreThank you, much apreciated. Not to many people notice my skils. I mean, it is not like i want to be nice while giving bash "products" a hard time living with themselves. Am usualy more rough at the edges, so i was actually quite nice to you. As for knowlege, am prety sure, there is way more then what you might believe, but feel free to think superior about it. It shows in comments though🤘. Average this, average that, complaining here, complaining there and when somebody asks you what binds software to hardware and how, you need to roll over and play d. But hey, you definetly undrstand how to complain and bash, that's for sure.

              imtiredokay, 01 Sep 2022The problem is even Samsung being called "oVeRpRicEd&q... morePoint taken but HMD is not even one tenth of what Samsung is so their budget is not comparable. Samsung makes profit out of every phone they sell, even from their budget offerings. But to be really profitable they rely heavily on the premium tier devices to feed the bank account. HMD does not have that luxury. Xiaomi took some years before it became profitable and because they flooded the market with a shitload of devices. A strategy that was possible back then but a lot less obvious for recent OEM's as there are too many players doing as such. Oh well, luckily there is plenty of choice (too much maybe) for any preference.

                Carol, 01 Sep 2022What the h are you talking about? Average refresh rate, are... moreYour communication skills, manners and knowledge are definitely not in order. You need to go back to kindergarten and start life, all over again.

                      you have to suffer, 02 Sep 2022hmd could have gone with snapdragon 732g. Even if it had a Snapdragon 723 is still under powered for the price by a lot
                      A Snapdragon 765 not ideal either
                      Really needs a Snapdragon 870

                      At the asking price and global wants for the Nokia x30
                      Your looking at Snapdragon 800 series phones There's a lot of flagship killers with Snapdragon 870

                      Adding the changers cost on top of the phone only makes it a even worse deal

                            Shame, it's one of the better looking phones this year.

                                  At least HMD keeps the micro sd, side-mount fingerprint sensor and 3.5mm headphone jack.
